MANHATTAN — Bedbugs have been found at a swanky Upper West Side gym where celebrities flock to work out, the gym warned its patrons online.
Reebok Sports Club on Columbus Avenue between 67th and 68th streets revealed on its Facebook page that "a regularly scheduled inspection identified one locker in the Men's Executive Locker Room" with evidence of bedbugs. The incident took place last Thursday, the Daily News reported.
Rob Kram, the club's General Manager, wrote on the Facebook fan page that the club sterilized the offending locker immediately and also cleaned out the nearby compartments under professional supervision.
The club told the News that experts told them they've eliminated all traces of the bugs.
The club is the latest Manhattan location to be infested with bedbugs, after clothing chains including Hollister and Abercrombie and Fitch, the News Corp building, the Empire State Building, and the dressing rooms at Lincoln Center.
